METHOD FOR PROTECTING A VEHICLE CLUTCH AND ASSOCIATED VEHICLE

摘要

The invention relates essentially to a technical method for protecting the clutch (6) of a vehicle (1) of the hybrid 4×4 type comprising a combustion engine (5) which drives one of the axle assemblies (2) of the vehicle (1) and an electric machine (11) which drives the other axle assembly (3). The method of the invention allows some of the torque from the combustion engine (5) to be redirected to the electric machine (11) when the temperature of the clutch (6) becomes too high.
